Great chord progression and a nice use of the pads throughout. Ambient music is all about transporting us to another place and this piece accomplished that in a real way. I am having my first cup of coffee of the day as I listen to this, and I'm glad I started with this winner. Very nicely done.
As I wander through the Internet looking for jewels, every once in a while I hear something that really makes my day. This is one of those times.
This song should be playing on radio stations all across this planet. Beautiful lyrics, sung masterfully, with wonderful guitar work as an accompaniment. This song proves that less is sometimes more.
What a great way to start my day. Definitely going to my favorites. Bravo for a job really, really well done.
Another wonderful effort. Terrific emotion in your vocal work and I love the unplugged feel of this one.
One thing that might help when mixing vocals is to triple your vox tracks - then pan one track all the way to the right, one all the way to the left, and one right down the center. Then adjust the volumes accordingly (if you don't, it will make them much too loud for the mix). A little reverb (a small room) on the right and left, and then maybe a warm plate for the vox in the center. Then EQ all three (try to warm them a bit, working with the mid-range frequencies). This method works for me. We all have a different way of doing things, but maybe you could give this a try.
Anyway, it will bring the vocals out, give them a nice studio feel. Don't worry too much about mixing and mastering. With your vocal skills, there should be plenty of people more than willing to step up and mix and master for you. You really have a wonderful voice. Keep making music.
Thanks. I can't wait to actually track the vocals on this one. It got buried for a bit but at some point its gonna come back with a vengeance. Thanks for the tips too! I'm taking notes all the time. SO out of my comfort zone but theres no reason why I can't get a good quality recording here and like you said maybe let a more experienced hand mix and master it. i have pages and pages and pages of notes and lyrics and so on. Thanks for the review!
This one is a bit like taking a small bite of Ghirardelli Chocolate....it is a magnificent experience, but it leaves me wanting much more.
Your voice is a cross between KT Tunstall and Alison Sudol, a very nice combination indeed. I would love to hear this song when it is completed. Until then, this small taste will have to suffice. By the way, the piano work is flawless.
Great rock tune. Love the guitar work (especially the pinch harmonics). I think this one shows what dedication and hard work can produce. Great mix....sounds terrific in the head phones. I'd have to say this one is definitely a keeper and a big thanks for dusting it off and posting it for us to enjoy. Well done.
